Progress, in terms of the New World Order, simply means “out with the hated old civilization and in with the new order.” Demolition of the old order requires elimination of everything from traditional holidays like Christmas, monuments, statuary, the Constitution (plus property rights, right to life, etc),, our history, our social mores, the traditional family, and so on.

Not the entire country. The areas under democrat control have surrendered to marxism and are actively working to promote it. Much of the public has its head in a hole in the ground and is unable to see what is happening. The smart ones, us, will not surrender to marxism.

DemocRATs should remember that the pendulum swings the other way too.

The reconciliation memorial isn’t racist.

It’s a thorn in the side of the Democrat Party that supported AND CONTINUES to support slavery and oppression in all forms that the RNC at one time fought hard to destroy but now capitulates to.

I’d say no surrender, but the fight is on and the time is short ... so we’ll soon see.

This is horrible and so utterly saddening. Is there no way to push back against the communists?

Here's a link to good article from the Discovery Institute (original at Townhall) on the Reconciliation Monument from January this year:

Why Preserve the Reconciliation Monument in Arlington Cemetery?
Here are a couple of key paragraphs...
President McKinley, a Union army veteran, recognized this healing that made the military exemplary. He told the nation, “Sectional feeling no longer holds back the love we bear each other… The Union is once more the common altar of our love and loyalty, our devotion and sacrifice.”

In June 1900, McKinley supported a bill to establish a Confederate section in Arlington Cemetery. That resulted in the reintering of some 260 Confederate bodies from various burial places to a designated section of Arlington Cemetery. A few years later, Secretary of War William Taft received a request for erecting a monument in that Confederate burial area—Section 16. In 1906 it was granted.

Moses Ezekiel, a world-renowned American sculptor, the first Jewish cadet at Virginia Military Institute who served in Confederate army in the Civil War, was chosen to create the monument that would capture the fullness of the spirit of reconciliation, serve as memorial to the hundreds of dead Confederates buried in Section 16, and be recognized as a prominent “Peace Monument,” commemorating the reunification of the North and South.

In 1912, then President Taft, presided over the cornerstone dedication ceremony, describing what was to follow as “a beautiful monument to the heroic dead of the South,” calling the ceremony “a benediction of all true Americans.”

Rather ironic that McKinley said "Sectional feeling no longer holds back the love we bear each other." Today, the "sectional feeling" is no longer defined by geography, but by the enormous philosophical divide between the communists and us freedom-loving, patriotic Americans. There is certainly no "love we bear for each other" any more. We are going to need a new Reconciliation Monument if we can ever get along again.

I want our old, good, loving, forgiving, reconciled, strong country back.

Hope the link works. If it does not, maybe someone with tech savvy can, since the link is in the Gateway article.

This memorial in most all the links I could find do not refer it as the Reconciliation Memorial. It is almost always referred to as the Confederate Memorial.

This history of it tells maybe why that is:

https://www.arlingtoncemetery.mil/Explore/Monuments-and-Memorials/Confederate-Memorial

I think it is stupid to tear it down, teaches nothing but hate, and I think all soldiers killed in wars deserve a place for visitors to mourn them. They die for the causes their political leaders devise, and it is mostly from loyalty to those whom they belong, more than political causes, that they fight.

Why in the world should I love this nation anymore? I love the principles on which it was founded and I stand with those who agree. I love the land and most of its people. But I can no longer possess an iota of fondness for its political apparatus nor can I share a flag with anyone believing we’ve remained on a correct historical track. Whatever “America” is left for me to live exists only in memories or dreams of rebellion.

They are not Marxist. They just use Marxist slogans. It is fair to assumes are since they talk that way, but they are not. These are wealthy or at least prosperous cosmopolitan persons who like to think they are Superior to the rest of us. I remember an administrator at a local college who used rhetoric saying the world was running out of resources and we could not continue with “conspicuous consumption” so we all had to not consume. This was a very prestigious position to take in his surroundings of persons who wanted to redistribute the income of anyone who made more than a college prof. A demonstration of prestige is also having a very nice house in an expensive part of town which he did. I could not understand how someone in his income could possess a house, Needless to say he was obviously a phony and so are these”Marxists” who freed us this prattle.

After this DC Globohom Regime collapses, an appropriate revenge would be the King Memorial and the Lincoln Memorial.

Want to waste everything sacrificed in the civil war, undo the reconciliation

And start

civil war chapter 2 ?

Cuz this is how you do that.

Now that they got their slave trade back they are getting frogy.

( by “they” I am not talking about the average non slave holder southerner who fought to defend his home and his neighbor and the man in the trench next to him )

Well, if they’re tearing down the Reconciliation Memorial, then I guess that means they don’t want Reconciliation and we can go back to banning Democrats from holding national office again.

Between Pence and the Senate RINO's, it is pretty clear that the "upper crust" of the GOP are all in on the Great Reset.
